When we travled as a family we would always stop at Stuckey's. I still remember the pecan roll. My grandma would buy little treats for us. It was a treat to stop at Stuckey's.

Back in the mid 1950's when I was around 10 years old, my parents would load me and my two brothers into our Chevrolet station wagon and begin our journey to visit relatives in Tampa, Florida. As we drove south from Pennsylvania we began the search for the first Stuckey's of the trip. My mother was hooked on the Pecan Log Rolls and the rest of us loved the Pecan Pralines and just about everything else in the store! We stopped at every Stuckey's we encountered and stocked up on all the precious pecan candies we could. Mother also fell... Read more

As we drove south from Pennsylvania we began the search for the first Stuckey's of the trip. My mother was hooked on the Pecan Log Rolls and the rest of us loved the Pecan Pralines and just about everything else in the store! We stopped at every Stuckey's we encountered and stocked up on all the precious pecan candies we could. Mother also fell in love with the alligator purses for sale in the stores. They would never be offered for sale in this day and age, but they certainly were in the fifties. Mother bought one for herself and one smaller (fashioned for little girls) for me. Do you remember the ones with the alligator head on the front of the purse and then the rest of the alligator would be on the reverse side? We just loved them and I still have my Mother's purse but have no idea where my little prize ended up! There were so many things about the memories associated with our stops at each Stuckey's and they will remain in my heart and soul forever. It was all part of our lives as we travelled south and then home to Pennsylvania again. After each trip to Florida we would begin dreaming about the next one and all the while knowing it would include numerous stops at each Stuckey's! Thanks for all the memories!!... Collapse

When I was a young child in the late fifties, early 60s, we were a financially poor family. When we did travel, we always got to stop at Stuckey's. The only reason we got to stop, was so my Mama could get her pecan log. we are traveling right now, and looking for a Stuckey's to stop and get her one now. She has Alzheimer's, but I know she will remember her pecan log, and it will put a smile on her face. My sisters and brothers and I would get to spend our well earned quarter allowance.

Stuckey's brings back wonderful childhood memories. My brother and sister are gone now, but we still have pictures that we took out in front of Stuckey's.... Collapse

We were a military family and always traveling from where my dad was stationed to Houston, TX to visit relatives. Our major stop was always the Stuckey's on the road. It was our favorite stop. My brother, sister and I always loved the Knicks knacks you found, my brother even bought some classic 45's that I still have today and enjoy listening to. My mom and I always fought over the pecan log roll until she mad me start getting my own. Was and still is my favorite candy.

"Growing up in the 1960's and '70's, my family drove from WI to FL several times. Dad had a Texaco credit card so we stopped for gas and our free pecan log roll with 8 gallon purchase! I haven't seen a Stuckey's for years. Happy to know you still exist!"

My partner is a Stuckey and we always look for the hats to return. Might be hard to find the cotton with shorter bill on the hat again. He still wears the raggedy old one. The logo is about to expire and take flight, thinking of displaying under a glass bell. Please bring the Stuckey's - short billed denim hats with embroidered logo, bring the hats back so we can stock up!! Oh, and LOVE, Love, LOVE . . .your Pecan Rolls!!!

My grandmother would drive us from New York State to Myrtle Beach, SC during the late 1960's. Stuckey's always was fun to get coconut patties and pralines' and Hermit crabs live and shells.

Well I remember the Stuckey's store in Savannah Ga along time ago and the one @ Gardens Corner S.C. My family and I have stopped in for a short break on our way to my wifes home town and enjoyed your store.

"As a child, my parents were fortunate enough to take our family traveling throughout the country. Many times our stops were at Stuckey's! Many times to eat, or just to stretch as we wandered through the store. Many times we would buy games to play in our travels. But we always purchased a pecan log. Later on as my wife and I were bringing up our family, Stuckey's became our place to stop as well however, most of the stores that were in NY state are now closed. The last was in Tully."

We used to drive to Scottsboro AL from Chicago area every summer, leaving super early in the morning,,, I can remember we would always stop at Stuckeys on RT 41 near Terre Haute IN to have 99 cent breakfast but my sister hated eggs so she would order a hot dog and fries. The silly little things that mean so much to us now...

Stopped at these stores all over the USA. When I was a kid it just wasn't vacation until we had loaded up on delicious pecan products and souvenirs. Put one in New Mexico. Like maybe outside Santa Fe....

"This is a follow on to Robert's comment on the Stuckey's message display system. My recollection of using it was in the summer of 1967. We were traveling from Ohio to Colorado to vacation at a Dude Ranch. My father sent a message to his brother, who had left a day after us, we did get his response later that day. I was 10 at the time. It's also probably worth mentioning that my father and uncle are Engineers. So of course they were intrigued."

We tried to always stop at a Stuckeys to get unusual local souveniers and the AWESOME Pecan Rolls at every stop! I was so heartbroken when Stuckeys disappeared from the West Coast!!
